Dental Anatomy Lecture (4 Dental Anatomy Lecture (4 permanent Maxillary incisors Maxillary incisors are four in number.The incisors major function is to incise or cut food during mastication. The maxillary central incisor is larger than the lateral incisor. Characteristic features of incisors crown 1.These teeth have incisal ridge and edge. Incisal ridge is that portion of the crown which makes up the complete incisal portion. Incisal edge is used when an angle is formed by the occlusal wear which creates flattened surface linguo-incisally ,sometimes called the" incisal surface" which joined with the labial surface. 2.Presence of mamelons. 3.Marginal ridges of are longitudinally. 4.Lingual fossa. 5.Cingulum. Principles identifying features of permanent maxillary central incisor 1.It is the widest anterior tooth mesiodistally. 2.It has a square or rectangular appearance. 3.Straight mesial outline and rounded distal outline. 4.Sharp mesioincisal angle and rounded distoincisal angle. 5.Mamelons on the incisal ridge (in newly erupted teeth). 1 6.Well marked marginal ridges, lingual fossa and well developed cingulum. 7.Single tapered root. Labial Aspect 1.The mesial surface outline is slightly convex with the crest of curvature (representing the contact area) near the mesio-incisal angle. 2.The distal outline is more convex than the mesial outline with the crest of curvature being at the junction between the incisal third and middle third. 3.The incisal outline in newly erupted teeth has elevations called Mamelons. With age they will wear off and straight incisal outline is seen. 4.The cervical outline of the crown follows a semicircular direction with the curvature directed toward the root. 5.The root is cone shaped with a blunt apex.It is 2-3mm longer than the crown. 6.A line drawn through the center of the root and the crown tends to parallel the mesial outline of the crown and root. Lingual Aspect 1.The crown and the root taper lingually, therefore , mesio-distal dimension of the lingual surface is narrower than that of the labial surface. 2.Below the cervical line there is a smooth convexity called cingulum which is confluent with raised marginal ridges mesially and distally. 3.Incisally there is the lingual portion of the incisal ridges. Between this ridges and the marginal ridges and the cingulum, a shallow concavity called the lingual fossa is present. Mesial Aspect 1.The crown is triangular in shape with the base at the cervix and the apex at the incisal ridge. 2.A line which bisect the crown will bisect the root.The incisal ridge of the crown is therefore on a line with the center of the root.This alignment is characteristic of maxillary central and lateral incisors. 3.The labial outline is slightly convex. 2 4.The lingual outline of the crown is convex at the cingulum then becomes concave at the mesial marginal ridge then slightly convex at the incisal ridge. 5.The cervical outline curves incisally more than any surface on any tooth, about 3-4 mm. 6.The root from mesial aspect is cone-shaped , and the apex is bluntly rounded. Distal Aspect There is little difference between distal and mesial outlines. The curvature of the cervical line is less distally than mesially. Incisal Aspect 1.The incisal edge is centered over the root. 2.The labial outline of the crown is broad and flat. 3.The incisal edge and incisal ridge are well defined. 4.The outline of the lingual part tapers lingually to the cingulum. 5.The mesio-distal dimension labially is greater than that lingually. 6.The crown has triangular shape, as the root shape in cross-section. 3 4 5 .

Enamel - Dental enamel is the hard thin translucent layer that serves as protection for the dentin of a tooth. It is made up of calcium salts. It is the hardest substance in the body. Dentin - Dentin is the hard, dense, calcareous (made up of calcium carbonate) material that makes up the majority of the tooth underneath the enamel. It is harder and denser than bone. It is one of four components that make up the tooth. It is the second layer of the tooth.

  • Veterinary Dentistry Basics
    Veterinary Dentistry Basics Introduction This program will guide you, step by step, through the most important features of veterinary dentistry in current best practice. This chapter covers the basics of veterinary dentistry and should enable you to: ü Describe the anatomical components of a tooth and relate it to location and function ü Know the main landmarks important in assessment of dental disease ü Understand tooth numbering and formulae in different species. ã 2002 eMedia Unit RVC 1 of 10 Dental Anatomy Crown The crown is normally covered by enamel and meets the root at an important landmark called the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ). The CEJ is anatomically the neck of the tooth and is not normally visible. Root Teeth may have one or more roots. In those teeth with two or more roots the point where they diverge is called the furcation angle. This can be a bifurcation or a trifurcation. At the end of the root is the apex, which can have a single foramen (humans), a multiple canal delta arrangement (cats and dogs) or remain open as in herbivores. In some herbivores the apex closes eventually (horse) whereas whereas in others it remains open throughout life. The apical area is where nerves, blood vessels and lymphatics travel into the pulp. Alveolar Bone The roots are encased in the alveolar processes of the jaws. The process comprises alveolar bone, trabecular bone and compact bone. The densest bone lines the alveolus and is called the cribriform plate. It may be seen radiographically as a white line called the lamina dura.

  • Dentin Bonding  Adhesion Is a Process of Solid And/Or Liquid Interaction of One Material (Adhesive Or Adherent) with Another (Adherend) at a Single Interface
    Lecture Caries of dentin Dentin structure The characteristic feature of dentin structure is the dentinal tubules. The dentinal tubules have a hollow structure and they are responsible for dentin permeability. The number and size of dentinal tubules is different at different locations on the dentin. Their course is S-shaped between the junction of dentin and enamel (DEJ) and the pulp, in the crown, and between the junction of dentin and cementum (CDJ) and the pulp, in the root. Dentin structure The peritubular (sometimes referred to as intra-tubular) dentine is a highly mineralised structure of dentine which has a thickness of approximately 0.5-0.8µm. It is more highly mineralized than intertubular dentine and it contains no organic collagenous fibres in comparison with the intertubular dentine which surrounds it. Longitudinal-section and cross-section of dentin. Dentin structure The dentinal is a hydrated nano-composite of hydroxyapatite crystallites with diameter of approximately 5 nm in diameter and they are distributed in a scaffold of type-I collagen fibrils, which are around 50-100 nm in diameter, and the remaining parts are fluids and non- collagenous proteins. The hydroxyapatite crystals differ in enamel and dentin, being larger and more regular in enamel than dentin. Dentin morphology & histology Unlike enamel, dentin formation continues after tooth eruption and throughout the life of the pulp. The dentin forming the initial shape of the tooth is called primary dentin and is usually completed 3 years after tooth eruption (for permanent teeth). Dentin is located between the enamel or cementum of the external tooth and the pulp internally.

Zsigmondy/Palmer notation system It was originally termed the "Zsigmondy system" after the Hungarian dentist Adolf Zsigmondy who developed the idea in 1861, using a Zsigmondy cross to record quadrants of tooth positions. The Palmer notation consists of a symbol (┘└ ┐┌) designating in which quadrant the tooth is found and a number indicating the position from the midline. Adult teeth were numbered 1 to 8, and the child primary dentition were depicted with a quadrant grid using Roman numerals I, II, III, IV, V to number the teeth from the midline distally. After that, Palmer changed this to A, B, C, D, E. There are several systems in use in the world, but only a few are considered. In 1947, a committee of the American Dental Association (ADA) recommended the symbolic (Zsigmondy/Palmer) system as the numbering method of choice. in 1968, the ADA officially recommended the “universal” numbering system, due to difficulties with keyboard notation of the symbolic (Zsigmondy/Palmer) notation system. 3. “FDI” notation system It is a two-digit system proposed by Fédération Dentaire Internationale (FDI) for both the primary and permanent dentitions.

  • Part I: Anatomy
    EQUINE DENTAL ANATOMY AND ORAL EXAMINATION Cleet Griffin, DVM, DABVP, DAVDC/Eq College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences Texas A&M University PART I: ANATOMY INTRODUCTION In Merillat’s 1905 textbook Veterinary Surgery: Animal Dentistry and Diseases of the Mouth, the author pointed out an intimate relation between the well-being of the horse and the condition of its teeth, and emphasized that dental procedures “must respect the horse’s mouth”. This principle has far-reaching relevance into the here- and-now, aligning well with one of the most important maxims of practice: “Primum non nocere” (First, do no harm). It is critical in the current era of equine dentistry to remember that dental procedures are to be performed in a safe, medically sound manner. The purpose of this section is to highlight important foundational knowledge in regard to skull anatomy, oral-dental anatomy, dental eruption, and dental nomenclature. DENTAL ANATOMY AND NOMENCLATURE Anatomic Abbreviations Teeth Anatomic Abbreviation Incisors I1, I2, I3 Canine C Premolars PM1, PM2, PM3, PM4 Molars M1, M2, M3 Dental Formula of the Horse The total number of permanent teeth depends on the presence or absence of canine teeth and PM1: • Permanent: 2 (Incisors 3/3, Canines 1(0)/1(0), PM 3(4)/3(4), M 3/3) =36-44 teeth • Deciduous: 2 (Incisors 3/3, Canines 0/0, PM 3/3) =24 teeth Anatomic Considerations • Equine teeth have long crowns that eventually form roots, these are classified as radicular hypsodont teeth • There is complex arrangement of calcified tissues and pulp

  • The All-On-Four Implant Therapy Protocol in the Management of Edentulous Chinese Patients
    The All-on-Four Implant Therapy Protocol in the Management of Edentulous Chinese Patients Ping Di, MDa/Ye Lin, MDb/Jian-hui Li, MDc/Jia Luo, MDd/Li-xin Qiu, MDc/Bo Chen, MDe/Hong-yan Cuif Purpose: To evaluate the outcome and special characteristics of immediate implant rehabilitation using the All-on-Four treatment concept in completely or potentially completely edentulous Chinese patients. Materials and Methods: A convenience sample consisted of 69 consecutive patients (37 men, 32 women; mean age: 56.7 years) treated with immediate implant placement and full-arch prosthodontic provisional prostheses between April 2008 and December 2011. Of 344 implants (192 mandibular, 152 maxillary), 240 implants were placed in fresh extraction sites. The remaining 104 implants were placed in healed sites. Implants were immediately loaded with a fixed full-arch provisional prosthesis. Implant survival rate, marginal bone loss, abutment selection, complications, and subjective patient responses were recorded during follow-up. Results: Implant survival rate was 96.2% at 33.7 months of mean follow-up (range: 12 to 56 months). A statistically significantly higher implant survival rate was found in the mandible (99.0% vs 92.8%) (P < .05). No significant difference existed between survival rates for implants placed in postextraction sites and healed sites (P > .05). Peri-implant marginal bone loss around upright implants and tilted implants was 0.7 ± 0.2 mm and 0.8 ± 0.4 mm, respectively. All patients reported satisfactory treatment outcomes. Conclusions: The modified All-on-Four treatment concept provides predictably favorable outcomes in completely or potentially completely edentulous patients and is well suited to the sociodemographic needs of Chinese patients.

  • Dental Anatomy and Pathology
    Dental anatomy and pathology Dental anatomy and pathology Geraldine Gorman Bay of Islands Veterinary Services, Shop 3, Selwyn Road, Paihia, Bay of Islands Introduction Various studies have shown that between 65 and 80% of dogs and cats over three years old have some form of oral disease and periodontal disease is the most common chronic infection seen in both humans and animals. Because Vet nurses are often the first point of contact between the client or pet and the practice it is essential that you have a basic knowledge of dental anatomy, pathology and procedures if you are to be a useful member of the dental team. In many cases a well-informed vet nurse can actually be a driver of dentistry in the workplace. Essential anatomy Dogs have 42 adult teeth, cats have 30. These are made up ofincisors, canines, premolars and molars. Incisors and canines are single while premolars and molars may be single, double or triple rooted. Figure 1. Canine Teeth.
